SECTION I: COLLABORATION -- continued

B. Community Overview – Description of topography, population, climate, land uses, businesses, schools infrastructure, fire safe councils, and other applicable traits specific to this CWPP area.

Stone Ridge Fire Safe Council at Warner Springs Estates in Sunshine Summit, encompasses an area of approximately 165 acres with 575 residents, located 75 miles northeast of the City of San Diego. Highway 79 serves as the only North/South corridor with no other East/West access roads in the region. As single ingress/egress accessible community, the safety and maintenance of this highway is a priority.

Numerous businesses, restaurants, vineyards, horse/cattle ranches, small farms and orchards, schools, a resource center and residences line Hwy 79. The Warner Springs Resort and Sailplane Airport, along with two Boy Scout camps – Lost Valley and Mata quay –attract year-round visitors to the area. Cal Fire and the California Department of Corrections jointly operate the Puerto La Cruz Conservation Camp located between Sunshine Summit and Warner Springs. The US Navy operates the Naval Survival Evasion Rescue Escape (SERE) facility. At the junction of Hwy79/S2, SDG&E operates a large electrical sub-station that supplies power to the North Eastern region.

This area is adjacent to Federal lands managed by Cleveland National Forest (CNF-USFS) and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Anza Borrego California State Park lies directly to the northeast and the Palomar Divide is directly southwest. Two Indian reservations, Los Coyotes (25,000 acres and 300 residents) to the east and Santa Ysabel to the southeast, border the north-east boundaries and utilize Hwy 79 as their primary access road. The Vista Irrigation District (VID) owns and manages 43,000 square acres to the southwest of this area, including Lake Henshaw.

Winters are cold and dry with temperatures from occasional 70s to low teens, bringing frost and snow to higher elevations. Rainfall at the Oak Grove Forest Service station averages 10.99 inches per year. Rainfall in this region can range from 10 to 20 inches or more per year. This rural backcountry area of San Diego County endures persistent summertime drought with year round strong dry Santa Ana winds gusting to 40 mph. Summers are hot and dry with daytime temperatures in the 90s to over 110 degrees F. Elevation is 3,400 feet.

The vegetation of this area is predominately chaparral dominated by Red Shank (60%) (Aden stoma pars folium), Chamise (20%) (Aden stoma fasciculatum), and northern mixed chaparral (20%). Grass and oak woodland occupy the valley floors.

The active Elsinore Fault skirts the southern end of the area near Henshaw Dam. Although the region is near earthquake faults, earthquakes are seldom felt and damage rarely occurs. Soils are primarily granitic with Bull Trail, Mottsville, Sheephead, and Tollhouse comprising the majority. Mudslides and floods are also rare due to the decomposed granite base, rock formations and lack of deep topsoil in many areas. Natural springs abound in some locations and are often dormant, reappearing during very wet winters.

C. Identification of Community Values at Risk

Using technology and local expertise, the sponsors of this CWPP have developed a series of maps depicting the site and situation of the Stone Ridge Fire Safe Council at Warner Springs Estates Community (Appendix B).

Values at risk within the community are:

With approximately 575 individuals residing in 290 homes in this region, properties average a value of $110,000 or more, additional structures because of our unique situation (small city) includes, clubhouse, laundry room/office, RV lot, sewage maintenance plant, 2 (two) water tanks at 273,000 gallons and maintenance building, putting at least 36.5 million dollars at-risk to loss of wildfire.

Over 20 small business owners, ranches, orchards and farms, a resort, the Warner Springs Unified K-12 school grounds, the Warner Springs Resource Center, a correction facility, the U.S. Navy SERES facility, three fire agency stations (USFS Oak Grove, SDCFA Station 59 Sunshine Summit, Cal Fire Station 52 Warner Springs), two boy scout camps, as well as historical sites.

D. Local Preparedness and Firefighting Capability— all fire jurisdictions within the area as identified by this CWPP are listed below with information is available on number of firefighting personnel and fire response vehicles:

Initial response to all structural fires, traffic accidents, medical, and associated emergencies within the SRWSE boundaries is the responsibility of the San Diego County Fire Authority (SDCFA) Station 59. When available, SDCFA Station 59 (Sunshine Summit) and SDCFA Station 58 (Ranchita) will respond using the closest resource concept to any emergency incident, including wildland fires, within Community Service Area (CSA) 135 with one engine and one water tender each.

Cal Fire provides all-risk emergency response to CSA 135, including Sunshine Summit, through an automatic aid agreement with SDCFA. The standard wildland response provided by Cal Fire is one Battalion Chief, five type 3 engines, two type 1 hand crews, one type 2 bull dozer, two type 3 air tankers, and two type 2 helicopters. This is standard dispatch is augmented or reduced dependent on fire danger.

USFS provides fire protection to federal lands, including the Cleveland National Forest (CNF). The USFS provides wildland fire response within CSA 135 via mutual aid to Cal Fire. The USFS will provide a standard dispatch of one Chief Officer, five type 3 engines, one type 1 hand crew, one helicopter, and one water tender. If structure fire or vehicle accidents threaten CNF/USFS public lands, the USFS will then respond.

Fire suppression on BLM lands is performed under a Cooperative Agreement with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire). Fire prevention, fuels treatment and land management activities remain the responsibility of the BLM’s Palm Springs – South Coast Field Office.

Ordering of resources are managed through mutual aid agreements between the above entities. All mutual aid agreements, training, equipment, and response are the responsibility of the SDCFA and the agencies listed above.

Law enforcement agencies-San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, California Highway Patrol, and Border Patrol-support, assistance and services are provided according to individual agency plans during wildfires, as needed.

SECTION II: PRIORITIZED FUEL REDUCTION TREATMENTS

The partnership that exists between the listed organizations and citizens in this CWPP allows the community of Stone Ridge Fire Safe Council at Warner Springs Estates to reduce hazardous vegetative fuels that could ignite residences and commercial facilities, particularly, during Santa Ana wind fire conditions. Maintaining properties with the appropriate defensible space is a key factor to protecting lives and properties.

The CWPP is not to be construed as indicative of project “activity” as defined under the “Community Guide to the California Environmental Quality Act, Chapter Three, and Projects Subject to CEQA.” Any actual project activities undertaken that meet this definition of project activity and are undertaken by the CWPP participants or agencies listed shall meet with local, state and federal environmental compliance requirements.

A. Priorities

1. Conduct and maintain appropriate fuel loads along designated ingress/egress routes.

2. Implement and maintain brush management projects on both private and public lands protecting regional infrastructure by integrating mechanical techniques, hand crews, herbivores, and prescribed burning, by creating fuel breaks/firebreaks to ensure community protection.

3. Map all roads, water resources, and enhance address and road signage throughout the community.

4. Identify evacuation planning priorities.

5. Heighten awareness/preparedness if residents decide to Shelter in Place, as this may be the only option.

6. Reduction of structural ignitability:

a. Brush/weed abatement inspections conducted by USFS (on federal lands) and Cal Fire (inspections on private land), with forced abatement by the County of San Diego and BLM.

b. Construction enhancements through county building and fire code requirements.

c. Class A re-roofing through county building and fire code requirements.

B. Existing Projects

1. Continue roadside brushing and fuel breaks with SERE, VID, USFS, Cal Fire, BLM and private landowners to continue fuel reduction projects surrounding this community’s perimeter, particularly on the southwest perimeter.

2. SRFSCWSE appreciates the BLM ongoing projects because the BLM land surrounds many portions of our community:

a. Puerto La Cruz truck trail fuel break and roadside brushing project.

b. BLM portions of the Indian Flats fuel break and roadside brushing project.

c. Aguanga Ridge Road roadside brushing and fuel break project.

3. Provide Outreach Educational Workshops for Homeowners Association members.

4. Due to the ban on fire permits, the SRFSCWSE has contributed funds, which is ongoing, for heavy fuel reduction at the burn pile.

5. Weed abatement, fuel reduction (lacing of pine trees) and mosaic ground weeding.

SECTION III: TREATMENT OF STRUCTURAL IGNITABILITY

In cooperation with the County of San Diego, the Stone Ridge Fire Safe Council at Warner Springs Estates CWPP supports and promotes fire safe activities and supports and educates its citizens in ways to reduce structure ignitibility through meeting the requirements of the County of San Diego Building and Fire Code.

Following is a description of structural challenges, including proposed methods of improvement and implementation proposed for the community:

1. Continue education for owners of the SRWSE community Evacuation Plan.

2. Seed funding to purchase and install a generator on Well 8 site to provide electricity during power outages.

3. Smoke and Carbon Monoxide alarm installations donated by San Diego Burn Institute, 2007 and 2011, ongoing.

4. Conduct ongoing community informational workshops to reduce structure ignitability and create defensible space in common area.

5. New maintenance building at eastern edge of property is utilized and maintained with tools and equipment for emergencies.

In cooperation with state, county and local building ordinances, a collaborative education campaign will inform and assist area residents in ways to reduce structure ignitability. Combined, Sunshine Summit Volunteer Fire Department Board, San Diego County Fire Authority Station 59, Stone Ridge at Warner Springs Estates Home Owners Associations, FSC of Warner Springs Estates at Stone Ridge, will support and promote fire-safe activities through workshops, educational materials and demonstrations.

The partnership that exists between the listed organizations (federal, state, local, and citizens) will assist the SRFSCWSE in reducing hazardous vegetative fuels that could potentially ignite residences and commercial facilities during extreme fire conditions. The use of fire resistant building materials, proper landscaping maintaining appropriate defensible space is vital to protect lives and property in this area of San Diego County.
